Four local schools took part in our Suburb Signage Competition, 2011. Judges had a hard time choosing between the superb entries received so decided to award two categories 5-8 yrs and 9-12 yrs. Three children received awards in each category and a Highly Commended was also awarded. Medals, made by local business The Trophy Store, were handed to the childrern by Linda Burney, Canterbury MP.

The competition was part of the Chamber’s Public Forum, where the community and local businesses were invited to come along and air their views on what they would like to see in the area. Over 30 people attended including the late Barbara Holborow, former NSW Children’s Magistrate and local resident, with great feedback which was passed onto councils for their information.

All were treated to a fantastic meal at the ExServicemens Club afterwards.
